Leonardo DiCaprio in "The Aviator"

[nq:1]What accent does Leonardo DiCaprio have in the film "The Aviator"? I don't suppose it's just a neutral American accent. East coast, I guess, but from where precisely?[/nq]
Certainly not "East Coast"! It's supposed to be Texan Houston, I believe. (Howard Hughes was born in Houston.) It's not DiCaprio's native accent, and I don't know how accurate it sounds. It did remind me somewhat of th

Have we done Johnny Depp

[nq:1]Have we done Johnny Depp's accent in Finding Neverland* yet? Having got Bohemian Estuary (TM) dead right (almost as dead right as Christopher Guest in *This Is Spinal Tap*) in *Pirates of the Cribby'un, something went terribly, terribly awry as he drove up the A1.[/nq]
And what sort of accent was he going for in Chocolat ?

Most of the action takes place on the West Coast (Southern California), but Hughes was no more from there than Sparky is; indeed, less so. I've heard native Southern Californian accents that sounded twangy to me, but not quite Texa

Texas has an East Coast of sorts, but no West Coast...Houston isn't on it..

Florida's got one of each, which really messes with people's heads..r
